Or perhaps it has an effect not because of the glove itself, but because of Layla's own internal struggles with her own relationship/feelings towards the MC...
TBH though, it's been a while since I last played this, so my memory might be a bit fuzzy
You are correct! It's a bit of sci-fi.
I would recommend for other people who have such a problem with the game to not play it. If you feel the need to bash something into pieces, then that is your prerogative, but some people don't take into account how much time a developer puts into making a game only for someone to turn around and criticize it with a low review.
Yes, you have the option to review whatever you want, but it says something about someone who goes the extra mile to pulverize someone. I never mention anything if it's below a mid-range review if it was made by a team or a solo developer. We don't have financial backing of millions. I can't even go back to Chapter 1 or 2 and make corrections that aren't in dialogue. Yet I persevere in the face of glaring criticism because I am passionate about my project and the players who enjoy playing it!
This is why I no longer pay attention to F95 reviews, because they represent the vast minority of actual players. I so happened to be checking the message board here and noticed I had to scroll through all the reasons I'm not a AAA studio. If you have such a problem, do no play my game, and play something that you like. You can save yourself time too.
Look, everyone, I think there otter-be a general rule around all my games to be nice. If you enjoy something, enjoy it! If you don't, go find something you do like. Please, keep in mind the solo developers who try their best to make the most awesome game they can! It's not going to be perfect. Cheers to anyone who can make a perfect game! If I was going through the motions, I wouldn't have made a near 7 hour game with 3 chapters. Chapter 4 is going to take me months because of how big and how much content I have put into it.
Keep your dreams alive, Otters! If you have a goal, let no one stand in your way. Be the best Otter you can be.
